At the request of a user to allow the searching of multiple strings, either names, numbers or both, we have enhanced the standard search box to allow searching of multiple terms. This applies to the webpage search box or that available as a browser add-in.

For example, imagine someone commented that drinking double espressos is good for asthmatics. You might question why? A quick search on google would tell you that caffeine and theophylline are in the same chemical group. However, typing in “caffeine theophylline” will give you a series of hits allowing you to compare on screen as shown below. Some other example searches that will work are combinations such as : 2425-79-8 NaCl viagra

This is work in progress and exposed for testing and feedback. Please stress test – constructive feedback preferred.
